Game Rules - 75-ball Bingo
The Game
Each player has a bingo card with 25 squares, 24 of which have a number from one through 75 assigned to them. There are 75 numbered balls. As the numbered balls are called, the corresponding numbers on your card are marked off on your card with a dauber. The first player to mark all the numbers on their card is the winner.
We have a number of different bingo rooms, each with a different theme and chat room. Prices start from 10 cents per card, depending on the room you are in. You can personalize each room, changing everything from the dauber type and colors to the font size in the chat room. We also provide a ‘Show my best card’ feature.
The bingo card
Each card has a grid of five rows and five columns, with 24 of the squares filled by a number randomly selected from one through 75. There is one free space at the center. Each column has the heading B, I N, G, or O. Each game has a pattern which you need to match in order to win the game. Some game patterns are ‘static’ and some are ‘moving’, giving you more ways to win. To play, you must purchase at least one bingo card per game. You can buy a maximum of 70 bingo cards, unless otherwise stated.
The balls and daubing
The balls used in 75-ball bingo are numbered one through 75. Each one also has a letter:
- Numbers one through 15 have the letter B and are coloured blue
- Numbers 16 through 30 have the letter I and are coloured red
- Numbers 31 through 45 have the letter N and are coloured white
- Numbers 46 through 60 have the letter G and are coloured green
- Numbers 61 through 75 have the letter O and are coloured yellow
When a number is called, the corresponding number on your bingo card will be marked off (or ‘daubed’). This happens automatically, so you’ll never miss a number or a win, even if you’re logged out or not at your PC.
Winning and prizes
The winner is the first player to daub all the numbers on his card. The game winner is announced automatically, and the prize will be added to his game balance.
The prize for each game will vary depending on how many cards have been sold and how many players are in the game. We guarantee a set prize amount in some games. The left section of the game screen (below the game room picture) always displays the current prize information.
In each room, there are special super ‘progressive’ jackpots that can be won at any time on any game if the winning card is completed within a certain number of balls (this number varies for each game). The jackpots increase in value with each card sold.
If more than one player completes their card at the same time, the prize will be shared between the winning card holders.
Prizes are credited to your game balance instantly.
Buying cards
You can buy tickets for a game after a game has ended and before the next game starts while you’re in the game room, or you can buy tickets in advance.
Quick Buy strips
When the next game is about to start the Quick Buy window will appear in the middle of the screen. You can choose one or more strips (a set of six tickets) from the dropdown list, and you can also use any free tickets you have. A pop-up window will confirm your purchase. Your strips will then be shown in the ticket area.
You can access the Quick Buy window at any time before the game starts by clicking on the ‘Quick Buy’ button below the card area.
Choose and buy
To choose your own tickets, exit and browse tickets. You will see a selection of strips to browse. Select a strip by clicking on ‘Strip’ at the top of the strip. You can select an individual card by clicking on ‘Avibl’ [n1] at the left of the card. Once you’re happy with your selection, press ‘Buy Selected Tickets’.
Once you are browsing your brought tickets, view more available tickets by pressing ‘Browse Card Choice’.
Advance buy (games and jackpots)
Buy tickets in advance to make sure you don’t miss any games. Click on ‘Advance Buy’ in the top-left menu of the game room. Then choose ‘Advance Buy - Games’.
You can choose how many tickets to play, and how many more games you’d like to play in. Once you’ve made your choices, click on ‘Confirm and Buy’. The price of your selection will be deducted from your selection. If you have purchased more than the maximum number of tickets, or if a game is re-scheduled, you will be refunded when the game is due to begin.
